I heard Amel do this song on youtube the other day and I could not remember where I heard it from. Then when I ran it, I found Barbara S. And now I finally found where it's from. I saw this movie when I was a small child with the legendary Yul Brynner. I never knew what an impression this song made on me. I remembered it in my sub for all those years. She is awesome.
Very beautiful voice, great emotional content in the singing too. Only minor quibble: Sometimes the words get lost. She could attack the consonants just a little more.
my school is doing the king and I and I got lady thiang. I was told to find my favorite version and sing along as loud as possible (without sounding horrible) and this is the one I chose!! amazing voice(:
Beautiful, exotic women singer. One of my favorite songs, embodies great passion for women who love the strong silent types. I think I like her performance a little better than the movie version. How I would love to have a voice like hers.
That was incredible. I will certainly take this into consideration when I audition for a role in The Kintg and I next fall. Thank you so much. :) And well done, Gina!
Wow. Thinking of auditioning for this role, so I came looking for the song to find out what the key is, but never expected to find something of this calibre. Not only is your voice and technique marvelous, but from the little shown here, so is your acting. Brava.
By far the best interpretation of this song I have ever heard. I would love to know where this clip comes from. How I wish there were more of this VERY talented lady on YouTube.
One measure of her greatness is that, in the over 30 'comments', there is NO disagreement...no nit-picking...no, "My 8th Grade Class Show did it better"...This performance stands alone...
omg, who would think this is gina from the artstart band... i remember watching her during their live shows and she was and is awesome! napaka-effortless ang pagkanta nya. so much talent!!!
GINA! how wonderful to see you here...reliving every blessed moment you took to the stage in this role...magic every night, and believe me folks, it was consistently beautiful for the 2 year run...bravi!
I am playing Lady Thiang in The King and I this Summer and you have given me a lot to live up to. A beautiful interpretation. If anyone is in Bude 31 July, 1st and 2nd august come and check us out :D
Hi Gina! i remember going to your ArtStart concert. you were and still are good. i remember you were so nice to me. you even asked me to go up the stage and gave me a free ticket to your next show. thank you. i hope i'll get to meet you again someday.
That was wonderful! Are you an opera singer? Your control at the beginning of the piece is tremendously beautiful! Outstanding! The best I've heard of this song on Youtube!
for the people who disliked this, i'm coming for you. with a stick. >:(
